摘要

A simple and sensitive method for the extraction of four phthalate esters including dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) and di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) as well as their determination in water samples was developed using homogeneous liquid-liquid extraction (HLLE) and HPLC-UV. The extraction method is based on the phase separation phenomenon by the salt addition to the ternary solvent system. The extraction parameters such as type and volume of extracting and consolute solvent, concentration of salt, pH of sample and extraction time were optimized. Under the optimal conditions (extraction solvent: 100 mu L CHCl3; consolute solvent: 2.0 mL methanol; NaCl 15% (w/v) and pH of sample: 6.5) extraction recovery was in the range of 92-102%. Linearity was observed in the range of 0.5-300 mu g L-1 for DEP and 0.6-300 mu g L-1 for DMP, BBP and DBP. Correlation coefficients (r(2)), limits of detection (LODs) and relative standard deviations (RSDs) were in the ranges of 0.9976-0.9993, 0.18-0.25 and 1.5-4.8%, respectively. The method was successfully applied for the preconcentration and determination of these phthalate esters in the several environmental water samples.
